The SAT is a total joke. But our friend here doesn't seem to think so, and brings it up in his arguments as if it has relevance.

We don't have standardized tests in NZ. We're like Britain and have national exams.

Did you do much of the prep stuff. I merely did the examples in the pamphlet. I did OK, but the math stuff was all American (we have quite a different curriculum – and I hadn't done math for ten years).

This was for the GRE.

I took a few practice tests. Originally I had 800/770/770. (770s in the verbal sections) so I improved 50 points from my practice.

Heh- you're another sub 1000 SAT guy.

MSUM is a good school, jackass. I went here instead of U of M because tuition is cheaper, I don't want to be taking out loans untill I start grad school. I got a 28 on my ACT, which is good enough to get you in to most colleges, so don't start questioning my intelligence. Oh, and did I mention that I got an A in all my classes this semester? Now Leave, evil troll before I hire Asher to infect you computer with a virus.

quote: Originally posted by Epublius Rex Combined score of 1540- in 1978. Stanford, class of 1982- Economics/Poly-Sci (dual major) Subsequent degrees from the University of Minnesota- Minneapolis/St.Paul campus. 4th generation graduate of the U. CS degree, 1999. In my family of four siblings there are a total of seven undergrad degrees and 3 post grad degrees and one PHD- which was gained helping to map the Human Genome, on said project. And I have news for you- what you have been "told" about genes and "race being a social construct" is false. And, as far back as 1980 profs at the better schools were teaching poly-sci majors that the future of politics in the West was the "managing of the masses"- not governing them, but managing them, you know, like a herd of cattle. I have held one job in my adult life- it lasted 2.5 years and then I "retired"- what you would call retirement. I have since devoted my time to politics, travel and "hobbies", occasionally taking courses in subject matter that interests me. That score, btw, puts me in the upper 99%. But I knew that in 9th grade.

That makes managing the economy easier. Add another four years onto the apprenticeships. Four years of earnings lost, four more years of debt. Four more years the old farts have before being pressured.

But what happens when there is an actual labour shortage?

Since the post was brought to your attention, does this mean the offending poster has been given a 24 hour ban?
